Finally get to post some of my own progress pics **Updated**

Finally got the cab corners and rockers put on. The bed is cherry, just a couple small dents. All in ppg primer and blocked out. Now just a couple more coats of primer, some more sanding, then ready for paint! Too cool, I can see the light at the end of the tunnel.
The frame I redid last year. Came out pretty nice, but it has alot of hanger dust on it.

Nice

I see you filled the fuel filler hole, what rear tank setup do you plan to go with?

That is a 454. Tire size is 29x15.5
I am going to get a narrowed rearend (about 4 inches out) and mini-tub the bed. Tires fit the way it is now, but there will be some rubbing issues.

I plan on getting ahold of Fuelcellguy to make me a tank, but that won't be for a while.

Here are some pics of todays progress:


Two more coats of primer, and began testfitting parts.
I apparently need to clean the camera lense!

Thanks for the look, Dan

Thanks guys.

The 67 is another project, or maybe just spare parts. I bought it for the bed. The truck in the pics was originally a step, but the floor of the bed was gone.
I think the progress on the truck will slow down for a while, because it is time to work on airplanes and get the annuals over with while it is still kind of warm.
There is three airplanes in the hangar, but they are sitting behind the truck so they don't show in the pics.

Truck looks great.

I wasn't thinking airplane haner when you said Hanger Dust

That would be a great place to work when the planes are gone,lots of room
